Within the context of this research project we will produce new non-flat interactive form factors for computing devices. These include full-colour display form factors that can be shaped to provide everyday products with display skins, and interactive robotic display elements that can show 3D images physically. While the primary objective of this project is to study and develop novel displays, inputs and interaction techniques for interactive 3D physical computers, a secondary goal is to develop new applications and products for these form factors. By studying how display technologies, input techniques and product shapes interact and by providing new input and display materials that will allow high resolution, multi-formed computer user interfaces to be embedded into any everyday product, we expect to revolutionize industrial design practices for entire categories of products. The ultimate objective of this research is to provide product designers with the materials, tools and techniques to create entirely new, leading-edge industries for Canadians, based on interactive, physical 3D graphic displays. This goal that fits well with an overarching goal of developing a digital economy based on these next generation computing interfaces. The nature of the organic display technologies is not only necessary to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of user interactions with computing devices, but also to improve the energy efficiency of our computing devices. Our research will train three PhD students in software engineering, user interfaces, industrial design, graphics, electronics and ergonomics, satisfying the great demand in industry for graduates with advanced degrees in user interface design.

在这个研究项目的背景下，我们将为计算设备生产新的非平面交互式形状因子。其中包括可以塑造为日常产品提供显示皮肤的全彩显示器形状因子，以及可以物理显示3D图像的交互式机器人显示元件。虽然该项目的主要目标是研究和开发用于交互式3D物理计算机的新型显示器，输入和交互技术，但次要目标是为这些形式因素开发新的应用程序和产品。通过研究显示技术，输入技术和产品形状如何相互作用，并通过提供新的输入和显示材料，使高分辨率，多形式的计算机用户界面嵌入到任何日常产品中，我们希望彻底改变整个产品类别的工业设计实践。这项研究的最终目标是为产品设计师提供材料，工具和技术，为加拿大人创造全新的，领先的行业，基于交互式，物理3D图形显示。这一目标与发展基于这些下一代计算接口的数字经济的总体目标非常吻合。有机显示技术的本质不仅是提高用户与计算设备交互的效率和有效性所必需的，而且是提高我们的计算设备的能源效率所必需的。我们的研究将培养三名博士生在软件工程，用户界面，工业设计，图形学，电子学和人体工程学，满足了行业的毕业生在用户界面设计的高级学位的巨大需求。
